Greetings!



I'm new to the board and have been VERY impressed by the quality of the cars I've seen on here, so I thought I would introduce myself with a few very VERY flattering pictures of the crappy paintjob on my car (which will lead very nicely into my question about Single-Stage paints).

My car currently sports a Single-Stage (integrated clearcoat) paintjob. I've been warned against wet-sanding it and was curious if anybody had any tips on how to remove scratches and get the best shine with what I have. I plan to get it repainted in a year or two, but any single-stage care instructions or products would be very much appreciated!
 
Knight TA- No need to wetsand, that's a pretty extreme approach that can easily go wrong. Just use mild products such as 3M's PI-III line (RC 05933 and MG 05937) to remove/reduce the marring. Or stuff from Menzerna, or stuff from 1Z (my fave), or from Meguiar's. Lots of options, just don't use anything too aggressive.

heheh...KARR...Knight's Automated Roving Robot...cool...:cool:



but yeah...listen to accumlator's suggestions on the products...very good...no need for wetsanding...start from the least aggressive and work on up...
 
OK I lied that wasn't the car you lost to.... HEH Hmm That Mezerna stuff seems to be a very popular item. Has it made the round and stood the test of time? I will be purchasing some Klasse items for this site soon and getting to work. The weather is getting really nice in Minnesota so I'm getting all excite HEH
